Looking for a compact/portable Mishna/Mishnayot set with illustrations and source

I’m looking for a compact set of Mishnayot with just enough drawings where needed (for example techumim, sukkah, etc illustrations), don’t want big giant “artistic” illustration, only technical stuff.

Some kind of cross reference notes to all the places the topic is mentioned in Talmud Bavli, Yerushalmi and Midrashei Halakha (haven’t found that but if i look in many talmuds they will have this or something like it, just wish they would put it in the Mishna editions too).

Some kind of cross reference notes to where this is discussed in major works of Halakha like Mishneh Torah and Tur/Shulchan Arukh (some editions have this but they also have too many commentaries and not enough illustrations).

Shinuy Nuscha’ot footnotes is preferable but not essential.

I don’t want any full commentaries, just occasionally footnotes or translations or brief explanations in Hebrew inserted in parenthesis only where needed, but i could be ok with a Kehati type of commentary too if it has the other stuff I’m looking for.

Artscroll and Steinsaltz do not fit the criteria for multiple reasons.

Mishna Behira is too large and too many volumes at too high a price and i do think they could have made the illustrations smaller.

If that doesn’t exist then maybe something compact with just extensive cross reference notes to the Bavli, Yerushalmi, Midrashei Halakha and Mishneh Torah and Tur/Shulchan Arukh but no illustrations, or just illustrations and not cross reference notes would also work for me.

Edit: also a separate standalone companion volume that has all the cross reference notes/sources and illustrations but not the actual text of the Mishnah would be fine too.
